The photographer captures the view from the opposite bank of the lake, incorporating the corner tower, the lake, and the trees on the shore into the frame. By using a symmetrical composition, the reflection in the water creates a mirror image of the corner tower, enhancing the balance of the scene. The distribution of the trees fills the space on both sides, highlighting the main subject, the corner tower. It is recommended to use a standard lens to accurately reproduce the proportions of the scene, clearly capturing the architectural details of the corner tower, the reflection in the water, and the layers of the trees, ensuring the image appears natural, true, and with a prominent subject.

1. Travel Tips: It is suggested to shoot on a clear or snowy day. If there are a few clouds in the sky, they can create a streak effect.
2. Other Tips: Wear comfortable athletic shoes.
